Fixing Darkmorgh, House style.

Today, while doing something productive(vid will be up later),

I encountered a duelist working on his deck.

It was atrocious.

I think it was supposed to be based on Dark Simorgh, but it had next to zero synergy with the overall deck.

Basically, I stepped in and fixed/changed the deck in about 3 minutes.

The changed decklist is as follows:

BF-Darkmorgh.

2 BW - Sirroco the Dawn
3 BW - Gale the hurricane
3 BW - Blast the Black Lance
1 Sangan
1 Spirit Reaper
3 Slate Warrior
2 Soldier of Mist Valley
1 EBI - Assla Piscu
3 Dark Simorgh
3 Divine Fowl King - Alector
2 Raiza the Storm Monarch

1 Monster Reborn
2 Mystical Plasma Zone
1 Mystical Space Typhoon
2 D.D.R.
1 Heavy Storm
2 Fires of Doomsday

2 Anti-spell fragrance
1 Torrential tirbute
1 Icarus Attack
1 Mirror Force
2 Deck Devastation Virus

Junk and Debris, in English!

Hello everyone.

Since its kind of a trend to have an all-english deck, I've decided to make one myself.

Of course, due to cost reasons(actually, more of I dont WANT to spend), It has to be a cheap deck.

And, of the cheaply built decks I have, Junk and Debris is one of the most successful.

So, I am going to build Junk and Debris in english, with a slightly different build, to save costs.

3 Debris Dragon
1 Armageddon Knight
3 Junk Syncron
1 N. Grand Mole
3 N. Glow Moss
1 N. Flare Scarab
3 Cross Porter
1 Sangan

2 Pot of Avarice
1 Card of Safe Return
2 Foolish Burial
1 RoTA
1 Heavy Storm
1 MST
1 Monster Reborn
1 Fissure
1 Smashing Ground
2 Convert Contact
2 Double Summon
1 Giant Turnade

3 Raigeki Break
2 Limit Reverse
1 Torrential Tribute
2 Manevolent Catastrophe

2 Black Rose Dragon
2 Iron Chain Dragon
2 Junk Warrior
2 Magical Android
1 Stardust Dragon

So, since most of these cards are common, if you have spare of these cards and are willing to give them away, contact me.

As a reward, you will recieve a shout out on this blog, as well as for every three(3) cards you send me, another entry into the free giveaway when this blog gets 20000 hits. Details on this can be from e-mail, or from when this blog actually gets 20000 hits.

Also, some Tokens for people to use.

English,

And Japanese

And Red Dragon Archfiend


Unlike my usual tokens, these actually have the token format.

Thats all for today. Thank you in advance for all the people who send me cards.

New video coming soon, as well.

Once a turn, you can destroy one face up attack position monster with the same attribute as this card. If you activate this effect, this card cannot declare attack this turn.

Limited Edition 16

Yes. Great card, supposedly.
Great for random removal, makes a good beatstick, and can syncro with Black Bomber.

People say its great for Anti-Black Feather.

Wrong.

This card wont change the game state much.

Its destruction effect requires it to be face up and on the field while it resolves.
Meaning by chaining Book of Moon, which BFs max out already, you can run it over easy with a Shura.

Dont overhype this card. Its not going to change the game state. Itll be a nice card to have, considering its cool artwork, though

Junk and Debris playtesting

Good day to you all.

Today is the World's qualifiers for Singapore. And I hope all of you had a great time.

After playtesting Junk and Debris, it became clear that the Scrap Iron Scarecrows were not doing what they were supposed to. I dropped them.

Also, 6 Neo-Spacians are a bit too many, so I dropped 1 flare scarab.

To provide some attacking power after a black rose nuke, I added 1 Dual Summon.

And to replace the Scrap Iron Scarecrows, some Manevolent Catastrophe to supplant the Skill Drain Macro Oppression I ran up against today. Also Gladial Beasts with their repeating Chariot.

That being said, Junk and Debris(tweaked version) managed to win me a SD17 in a bet today(Best of 5, No side)

Use Junk Syncron or Debris dragon with Cross Porter to Syncro Summon a level 5 or 6.

With Treeborn Frog, Syncro summoning of level 8 dragons from Debris, as well as Goyou and Brionac from Junk Snycron, becomes possible.

2nd Match: VS Rescue Glads

Vanity and prohibition on Cat makes great fun.

3rd Match: Cat Syncro

Bad starting hands both times. Full Monarch+Vanity hand is not fun.
2nd time I got OTKed

For Pony/フォー・ポニー

Good day, everyone
皆の衆ごきげんよう

Diamond Guy is great fun. Free cards.
ダイアモンドガイは頼もしいカードである

Sunlight Unicorn is even greater fun. Free cards WITHOUT the delay.
サンライト・ユニコーンもそう。でもこっちは1ターン待つ必要ない

Both cards make great use of the top of your deck as a resource you can tap into.
両方はデッキトップをリソースとして使用するカードである。

Just like in the days of Zombie Syncro, where your graveyard was your hand and your RFP pile was your graveyard.
ゾンビシンクロの時代で墓地は手札であり、除外は墓地であるであったように

these cards make your top deck your hand.
このカードはデッキトップを手札にする

So, I bring to you, the Diamond Guy X Sunlight Unicorn Advantage engine, "For Pony".

Playing

Use Dimension Alchemist to run over things, remove a card from the top of your deck you dont particularly want, and return Plague Spreader Zombie to your hand
次元合成師を使ってほしくないデッキトップを消したり、ゾンビキャリアを手札に戻すのに使える

The lack of Allure of Darkness and Destiny Draw were intended both save costs. But also, the low number of Destiny Heroes does not allow for the use of the cards. Especially when they both are central to the deck.
闇の誘惑とデステニィドローは高いから入れてない。さらに、デスティニーヒーローは少なくて、両方は捨てたりしなくて使用したいから入れてない

Vennominon the King of Poisonous Snakes + Give and Take.

Sunday, June 14, 2009

Coming next Saturday to a tournament near you:

Coming next Saturday to a local tournament near you:

A predicted influx of Dual Monster usage, as well as an increased number of Plant decks.

For all you AKB people, be sure to stick with it. It'll still be the top.

Be sure to wear plenty of sun-screen when going outside, and dont forget Prohibitions on Supervis.

As for myself, I'll be running Spell Counters.

This has been Rauzes with the upcoming weather.

Justin, back to you and your boring news.

Saturday, June 13, 2009

Tournament Report: 6/13/09

I went to a small scale tournament today. 15 people showed up.

I ran Rauzes-Monarchs.

1st Match: VS Lock - Cure Burn - Lily Beatdown - Guy who plays Lock every tournament
OO

1st game got locked down first turn, and the enemy cured until 15000 Life. He didnt draw into Big Bang girl early, which meant I had full life. He had a field of 2 Lilys(who strangely didnt attack), and was holding 3 Golden Lady bugs.
I tributed 2, set Gorz, and set DDV. Opened next turn to wreck his setup, stormed the next turn, and won because of that.
2nd game I didnt draw into Vanity, Gorz, or Caius. Syncroed into Colossal, and sent it off for DDV. Apply beatdown with Shiba Warrior Taro, Mashamallon, and Winged Kuriboh, and after a few turns open Kuriboh Summoning Flute for game.

2nd Match: VS Cat Syncro(Full English) - Store Worker
OO

Both games opened with Vanity, Kuriboh Flute, and DDV. What fun. 1st Game also opened with Heavy. 2nd Game with a Caius and Treeborn. The next draw after my 2nd game would have been Prohibition.

3rd Match: VS Skill Drain Metabeat - Guy who skipped out school to go to tournament
XOX

1st game I drew into VanityX3, CaiusX2, and a Winged Kuriboh. I didnt last that long. The enemy got up Oppression + Skill Drain on turn 1. Vanity against a deck that can easliy include it is bad.

2nd Game I drew well. 2X Manevolent Catastrophes, Kuriboh Flute, and Raiza, amongst others.

3rd Game I screwed up bad. I had taken out 1X Caius, 1X Gorz, 3X Vanity, my Chaos Sorceror, and other things. I DIDNT remember to take out DDV. DDV doesnt hurt the enemy's deck at all. Dead draws killed me.

4th Game(For 3rd Place) - Dimension Gladials - Gucci

No duels. He surrendered because he had to go off.

I left shortly after.


Needed Changes: +1 Pot of Avarice OR 1 Winged Kuriboh in main. Tragoedia in side does nothing

Thursday, June 11, 2009

The game needs more OTK stoppers.

Hello everyone.

It kinda bothers me that everyones complaining about OTKs.

Sure, Dark Dive Bomber causes games to end too quickly, and with it, a whole host of OTKs are created.

But what people dont think about are OTK stoppers.

The game has quite a few OTK stoppers. The problem is, they arent good enough.

What the game needs are more card to counteract the OTK phenomenon that is Dark Dive Bomber, AND make it viable to play often.

Any thoughts/comments on this?

Wednesday, June 10, 2009

Plot twist. Spoilers.

From 5D's. I watched todays Episode.

1 V 3 Riding Duel. Fun stuff.

Big plot twist.

You know that D-Wheeler that is legendary and everyone in satelite wants to be like because he jumped off of Daedalos Bridge or whatever?

He wants to destroy the world now.

Other than this I havent touched Yugioh Today. No blog post.

Dual Soldier.

Dual Soldier
Level 2/Wind/500/300/Dual
This card is treated as a Normal Monster while face-up on the field or in the Graveyard. While this card is face-up on the field, you can Normal Summon it again to have it be treated as an Effect Monster with this effect.
- This card cannot be destroyed by battle, once per turn. If this card attacks or is attacked, you can Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower Dual Monster other than Dual Soldier from your Deck after damage calculation.

Dual Solider. Most of you people are going to throw this card out when you buy your 3 Warriors Strike Structure decks for the 3 Supervis.

but in all reality, this card has tons of potential.

Point number 1: First ever level 2 Gemini. League of the Uniform Nomenclature says hi.

Point number 2: Gemini's have many different Types. This guy can recruit any one of them.

Point number 3: Geminis tend to sport big, but not the biggest bodies.

Point number 4: Easy to special summon. Angel Lift, Limit Reverse, Birthright, etc. That means that your level 2 500/300 Vanilla monster ISNT quite as often as you might think.

So, since obviously not many people have noticed all of these things and see something good in the monster, let me show you.

Twin Trooper
Total 41

18
3 Dual Soldier
3 Antique Gear Knight
3 Gemini Lancer
3 Evoltecta Chevalier
3 Elemental Hero Neos Alius
2 Blazewing Butterfly
1 Sangan

10
2 Polymerization
1 Future Fusion
3 Supervis
1 RoTA
1 Card of Safe Return
1 Wrath of Neos
1 Heavy Storm

13
2 Spiritual Earth Art - Kurogane
2 Spiritual Fire Art - Kurenai
2 Spiritual Water Art - Aoi
2 Spiritual Wind Art - Miyabi
3 Birthright
2 Limit Reverse

By using Dual Soldier to recruit various duals/geminis from your deck, you can stem off the advantage LOST through the spiritual art. Easy recruits of big monsters consitute your beatdown aspect.

And, if worst comes to worst, Birthright Alius, tack on a supervis, cast wrath of Neos, revive Dual Solider, and re-summon, to swing for a total of 2400 damage on a cleared field.

Of course, if you want to take this to the next level, I personally suggest focusing on two of the elements only. This deck was built to show you how to use Dual Solider. If you want to focus more on it, using 2 Element's Spiritual art will give you more deckspace.

Today in my life: I watched 6 episodes of House, M.D.
Good stuff. my english is improving.

Gaurdian Eatos: Game changing or just overhyped?

Good day, everyone
皆の衆ごきげんよう

Gaurdian Eatos:
Level 8/Fairy/Wind/2500/2000
If there are no Monster Cards in your Graveyard, you can Special Summon this card from your hand. By sending 1 Equip Spell Card equipped to this card to the Graveyard, select up to 3 Monsters in your opponent's Graveyard and remove them from play. For each monster removed from play by this effect, this card gains 500 ATK until the End Phase.

Okey. Everyone knows its effect. Everyone knows a 1st turn Eatos means a big threat.

But, the decks that actually can use Eatos, considering how the special summoning requirement is pretty much only valid for the first 2 turns, is highly limited.

Playing a Macro deck would allow you to play Eatos as an easy special summon 2500 attacker, but otherwise having zero synergy with the rest of the deck. Additionally, its attack upping ability is completely cut off, due to Macro.

Putting this monster into Dimension Glads is an idea that came up some time ago. It doesnt work. Dimension Glads dont garuntee a 1st turn Fissure. Thus, cannot be used.

Is a 2500 Easy summon from hand that game changing?

You might say yes, but I say no.

Its limited to the first turn to come out, and 2500 isnt big.

2500 is nothing compared to a 2800 Monster stealer, which is summonable with 1 card from the hand.

2500 is run over by the 1300ATK tuner which can halve the ATK and DEF of anything.

Combining it with Exodios to special summon is a possible gimmick, but having 2 specific monsters at once isnt going to happen as often as you want.

Additionally, If you summon it, buff it, and attack, the next turn the enemy's graveyard can be empty, allowing THEM to summon their Eatos.

In Fairy decks, with Valhalla, It gets in the way of Valhalla itself with its own special summoning powers. That, and most fairy decks do NOT run equip spells.

In conclusion, not many decks are going to be using Gaurdian Eatos. Its just not good enough.

That being said, LE15 has good cards, which make it worth your money. Namely: Clear Vice Dragon and Darkness Neosphere.

I am also suprised how little people responded to HighlanderXSilk and Milk...

Coming soon: SD17 - Using Dual Warrior
